Brandenburg, Dom, Joachim Wagner 1721-1723; Gehäuse 1725

Joachim Wagner 1721-1723; case 1725

State of preservation: majority in original state.

It is the largest organ by Wagner still preserved who was one of the key figures in amalgamating the organ styles of north, central and south Germany (via Silesia). Key elements were the wide range of solo stops including strings, the cornett, and a separate thirds stop, and the "gravity" of the pedal without a high melody stop of 2'. This supports the monumental qualities of this instrument played only at high festivals when everyday demands of liturgy were of little importance.
